That was my impression, but I was basing my statement on this in the
referenced document: "Officially, we intend for the end user to use one of
the following NNTP newsreaders to connect to the Bridge at a time: Outlook
Express, Windows Mail, Windows Live Mail, Thunderbird, or Forte Agent."
Additionally, I did see a Google Groups thread in which a poster claimed to
be using Thunderbird 3.0 without problems.
